the version i'm using it's the currently available on the gentoo portage (1.1.0).
I setup my temp directory to the one i'm using with windows. when i restarted amule, no currently downloads apeard on my transfers window but the temp directory had the configuration i wanted to... so, i supose the problem it's while loadin .met files...? so... what should i do?

ATENCION: i have already solved this problem installing version 1.2.4

there's already an official ebuild, but it's masked:
> ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86"emerge amule
for using the masked ebuild

zlib 1.2.1 still marked unstable, but 1.1.4 bugged

copy the code in a file named amule-1.2.1.ebuild in a directory /usr/local/portage/net-p2p/amule

must create dir if not exists, and modify /etc/make.conf adding

Code: [Select]
PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage
copy aMule-1.2.1.tar.bz2 in /usr/portage/distfiles, change directory to /usr/local/portage/net-p2p/amule and

Code: [Select]
ebuild amule-1.2.1.ebuild digest
then emerge with

Code: [Select]
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -U amule
try with
Code: [Select]
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -pU amule
before

if this works, consider submitting to bugzilla for inclusion in official portage

its a howto for 1.2.1 but u should be able to replace it by 1.2.4 ..

btw.. 1.1.0 u must start with the command:

 export LANG=C && export LC_ALL=en_EN && export LANG=en_EN && export LC_MESSAGES=C && amule

and we have a tarball .. why don't u compile it ?  :(

Hi!

First thanks for an excellent p2p software for linux!

I have also trouble sharing directories with Windows eMule and aMule 1.2.4.
My distro is Fedora Core 1 with kernel 2.4.22-1.2149.nptl.

I installed aMule with the latest 1.2.4 FC1 RPM packages and installation was a breeze, no errors. Same thing with the dependencies.

I mount the FAT32 partition like this in /etc/fstab:
/dev/hda4 /shared vfat users,guid=users,umask=0002 0 0

At startup aMule sees the shared files I have but it can't open the files for my ongoing transfers. The aMule log window show this for every file:

Can't open file '/shared/emule/temp/005.part'
Failed to open /share/emule(temp/005.part.met

I suspect it is something with user rights? I try to use this with a user level ID, not root.

Thanks!

shared & share ?!? /temp & (temp ?!?

guid=users ?!? -> gid=users ;)

Ack, typos. Sorry.

The paths are correct in real life, ( means / in the output.  I jsut typed the stuff here hastily.

The mounting is also correct, I have gid=users in the mounting line.

As root everything works fine so it must be with the user rights. How could I specify that users group has full access to /shared/emule/* ? (I wouldn't want to give full access to users in the whole /shared mount.)

I wanted to bump this old thread to tell the reason for not being able to resume downloads with user level id (but could do so with root id).

Although I had mapped the drive with gid=users my user belonged in a group of the same name as the user id, not in "users" group.
So, in order to fix this I set the user id's group to "users" like it should be.

I don't know if this is common behavior for all linux distros but at least Fedore core 1 does this->create a new group of same name for the user-id.
 
So remember to put your user id to "users" group for the above mount command to be effective in aMule's case ;)

Thanks for tips, aMule has worked fine for the last few weeks now.
